"ILuminosity of True Christianity"

Introduction

By Presbyter, Eric William King

Today the fad is; eat right, drink right, exercise right, meditate on nothing, worship nature as God and you are on the right path. What is this? Selfishness!

To take care of your physical selves is great, and something that we all should do but we cannot do that correctly if we are not in a right relationship with the true God, it is our spiritual REALITY that must be correct first. Today people are more “into themselves”, as if the world revolved around them alone. Today people talk about "setting boundaries for themselves" which in today’s world means that, "If you do not agree with my philosophy and ideology, I can't stand to be around you." What is this but self-righteousness and selfishness. This is not the CHRISTIAN WAY.

With these studies, in "ILuminosity of True Christianity" I hope to awaken you to the REALITY that God wants His people to live in. Let us consider aspects of our predicament:

All our troublesome passions spring from the core passion to make our present lives better: distorted appetites for food or sex, bizarre urges that overwhelm us at the least convenient times, consuming desires to like ourselves better, a frantic determination to succeed personally or professionally, and insistence that spiritual victory translate into comfortable life that no tragedy or tension can disrupt, a lust for revenge against those who have hurt us. We are passionately determined to make our lives less painful, and we will do whatever it takes to reach this goal in a disappointing, sometimes pleasurable, and maddeningly uncertain world.” ~ Dr. Larry Crabb

“…counseling/psychotherapy (psychology) no longer stands as the science of behavior, but as the guardian of the soul, the maker of value, the determiner of morality, the definer of freedom. That which began as a true science of behavior has degenerated into a neo-religious cult. In place of God is man. In the place of the priest (minister) is the psychologist. In the place of the Word (God’s Word) is psychotherapy. In place of confession/forgiveness is the interpretation (or one of its many equivalents). Counseling/psychotherapy (psychology) emerges as the practical twentieth-century religion. Here the deception of neutrality is revealed.” ~ Richard Granz

Wow! So, what is the true answer to these and many other issues? My hope is that you watch and listen to all of my lectures (ILuminosity of True Christianity). Book mark our blog-site (The Shepherds Way – Eric King) and study your Bible with us here. I wish nothing but the best for you in your Christian life with Jesus the Christ.

May you find that you have all you need in the person of Jesus Christ.

ILuminosity of True Christianity

More Thoughts to ponder for Part One

"Man's historical existence has been shewn to involve him in a bondage from which he cannot escape by his own efforts. His existence is in contradiction with his true destiny, which is a life lived in the love and fellowship of God. By his original decision, man sets himself over against God and opens up an abyss between his own sinful state and the divine holiness. He centers his life in himself or loses himself in the forces of nature. His pride becomes demonic or sensuality holds him in its grip." ~ Eric C. Rust

 

We Christians cannot talk about loving God until we come to grips with our own raging passion for ourselves. We can not and will not love anyone but ourselves until we meet God in a way that stirs us to race after Him with single-minded intensity, until our deepest desire is to get to know Him better.”

“And that’s our problem. In a culture so thoroughly devoted to life now, and in a church drenched with teaching on self-improvement and building happier lives, we can’t easily develop a passion for something other than our immediate satisfaction. The historic church, in its role as embassy of a foreign kingdom, taught that the chief end of people is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever; the modern church too often teaches that the chief end of God is to gratify people.

“We must return to our earlier understanding that personal fulfillment is not the highest value, that the well-being of any individual matters less than the glory of God, and that we will find ourselves only when we look for God first.” ~ Dr. Larry Crabb

Christian Thoughts for Part Two

"If Christlikeness is developing (it will never be perfectly or fully developed in this life), if your life is given to soul-winning [words & examples] service, and if praise, worship, thanksgiving and submissiveness [to Divine Intelligence] are in your heart and actions, then the Spirit is in control. You need not look for some startling manifestation of Spirit-filling, nor need you plead for some ecstatic experience. Yield control to God; keep it there, and use all the powers available to develop the biblical characteristics of the Spirit-filled life." ~ Charles C. Ryrie

“Our moral impotency does not take away our individual responsibility of sin. God commands all to believe in Him and accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. This is utterly impossible without the act of God interceding in our “spiritually dead” lives to save us. Thus, our act of choosing Him proves that He made the first move…not us. Our salvation comes through hearing the Word and the Holy Spirit revealing the truth of the gospel unto us minus anything we have within ourselves. Only the quickening grace of Jesus Christ can truly awaken a lost soul unto salvation...minus our human will. (Romans 8:30) “

*Being “spiritually dead” does not mean that you are not spiritual – it simply means you are “dead” to the True God because you’re ignoring a true relationship with Him.

“Today many believe that if they eat right, exercise right, meditate and practice what many now call, “speech control” [Such as not responding to certain statements others are saying while talking to them – thus ignoring what they refer to as “points of contact”]. All of these types of “psychology” give them a sense of importance/control while ignoring their own sinful thoughts and actions is certainly not reality. Deviate manipulations of others are not Christian, they are evil.

“A person can do many good things and be a “good person” but it does nothing to take sin away. Only a perfect God can properly deal with personal sin. Jesus the Christ has given the “Good News” about these and many other reality issues. Keep your Bible’s with you at all times and continue to study with us here at “The Shepherds Way” & “Nugget of Truth”.
